At first glance I thought these were rebranded ASRs due to the white plastic and metal dispenser, but on closer inspection the package says "Made in Korea" and the dispenser is different. Anybody try them? $1 (go figure!) for 5.

Probably made by Dorco.
$1.79? for 10 blades in WalMart.
Dorco was my first thought too, never tried the dollar store ones.

The DG blades are almost certainly Dorco. I've tried one, and it was just OK for me. It was smooth enough but not very sharp. For me, I say. I can palm-strop a Walmart Wilkinson and get a better shave for less money.
I was in DG yesterday, I bought a 10 pack of disposables for a buck just to see how they work. Personna comfort shave twin blades. plus some shaving gel for a buck. Thought I'd try to piece together the cheapest possible shave as an experiment - 10 cent disposable plus a nickel's worth of shaving gel. I'll post results!
I am pretty sure the general consensus is yes, they are Dorks. I can use them, if I have to. Strop 'em then an extra pass and/or more touch-ups are required.
